HilltopSecurities.com Wins 2016 Internet Advertising Competition’s Best Investment Website Award
06/23/2016
HilltopSecurities’ new website, HilltopSecurities.com, recently won the Internet Advertising Competition (IAC) Best Investment Website Award.
In 2015, HilltopSecurities engaged Dallas-based digital strategy firm Imaginuity to create a vibrant website that incorporated the firm’s various business lines into a unified, interactive and seamless experience for its current and prospective clients.
“HilltopSecurities is a bold, new firm that’s building on more than a century of combined history in the industry. We wanted to ensure that our online presence reflected this unique position and our vision for the future,” said Bob Peterson, President and Chief Operating Officer of HilltopSecurities. “Finding an agency with equal strategic, creative and technical strengths allowed us to launch a dynamic website that will continue to evolve and grow with our firm.”
Imaginuity and HilltopSecurities’ communications and technology teams worked together under tight compliance and merger timelines in order for the website’s launch to coincide with the public announcement of the merger of HilltopSecurities’ legacy companies, Southwest Securities and FirstSouthwest, on January 22, 2016.
“Our strategy, creative and technology teams love a challenge, particularly with clients who are committed to delivering an extremely high quality end result,” said Corbett Guest, Chief Executive Officer of Imaginuity. “The HilltopSecurities team was heavily invested in the success of this engagement—the teams worked side by side every step along the way, and the results have been clearly recognized by the industry and this award.”
